Super Equipped Room!

comfy bed lovely shower room useful fridge keyless entry
I loved the comfy bed! The shower room was also lovely. A fridge and a microwave are useful. A large TV is available. Keyless entry is so state of the art! Communication between the owner and myself felt excellent and reassured me. The location is also great. It is very near to a lake. Free parking near the room is provided.
The room I stayed in feels a bit too small. This makes moving around difficult. The space is limited, specially for luggage. A little bigger would improve everything a lot, I think!
